Rabbi Warns of Pitfalls in Lighting Candles for Second Day of Rosh Hashanah

Translated & summarized from Behadrei Haredim by baba
The story · English

Rabbi Shabtai Levi, head of the Beis Din 'Halichot Moshe' and chief rabbi of Ramat Aharon in Bnei Brak, has issued guidance regarding the lighting of candles for the second day of Rosh Hashanah, emphasizing potential prohibitions.

The rabbi's advice, published by 'B'hadrei Haredim', focuses on the halachic (Jewish law) considerations for this specific observance. He highlights that there are Torah-level prohibitions ('issur d'oraita') that must be carefully observed when lighting candles for the second day of the holiday.

While the article does not detail the specific prohibitions, it stresses the importance of adhering to the rabbi's warnings to avoid transgressing these laws. The guidance is part of a daily 'Halacha' (Jewish law) feature provided by 'B'hadrei Haredim', offering religious rulings and advice to the community.
